TANTRA THREE  Verses  871 - 883 of 883

 

871: Merging Moon's Kalas in Kundalini

 

The Kundalini serpent consumes Kalas of Moon

The Fire consumes Kalas of Sun, too

If you can resolve the conflict of Serpent and Moon

Merging the Kalas of Moon in Kundalini

The Lord will leave you not, ever ever.

 

 

872: Kundalini Devours and Throws Out Moon

 

The Kundalini that moved up

Devours Moon

Sleep not until it throws it out;

When the Moon comes out

Then may you take your sleep;

Your mind shall then luminous as full moon be

Then the Mystic Moon inside

Will shed its dazzling Kalas full.

 

 

873: Time for Sleeping and Eating When Moon is Devoured by Kundalini

 

Sleep not until the Moon comes out;

Eat not until Moon rises;

Sleep not until Moon moves;

Sleep the Yogi may

When but the Moon moves.

 

 

874: By Chandra Yoga Death is Conquered

 

The Yogis who thus practise incessant

Conquer Death;

They will live in this world aeons beyond;

They are worthy of our obeisance,

They who, this Moon's Yoga in success practises.

875: The Yogi Sees Vision of Past, Present and Future

They traverse Spheres of Sun and Moon

And see vision of Past, Present and Future earth;

And in that Full Moon day the nectar ripens;

Until the Moon drops back from Kundalini,

Time stands to a stop.

 

 

876: Moon Drops Out With 12 Kalas From Kundalini's Mouth

 

The waxing Kalas six of Sun

The waning Kalas six of Moon

Woke to life to twelve angula running

And then the Moon droped out

Who knows this!

 

 

877: He Conquers Bindu

 

If Yogi thus achieves this goal

In the day of Full Moon

The Yogi's semen flows not where it lists;

Devoid of passions, it firm collects in Muladhara;

Chanting Aum in heart's silentness,

He remains Pure, Awareness filled.

 

 

878: The Emitted Moon has 16 Kalas Ultimately

 

To the Six waxing Kalas of the fiery Sun

Will be the Four Kalas of Fire

To these ten Kalas goodly

Will be the Six Kalas of Moon

Thus are they Kalas Sixteen

In the Full Moon emitted.

 

 

879: Sun's Kala in Sex Union

 

In the mingling of male semen and woman's fluid

Emits Sun's Kala,

If Sun's Kala is low, semen ejects quick;

When mind and body balanced stand

Never will they let semen flow.

 

 

880: Effects of Chandra Yoga

 

If with mind centered they course their breath,

In direction of Nada sound

That from Siva's Conch emanates,

The five senses that run blind

Will their restraint meet;

And the interminable bliss of delectable Nectar

Leaves them not ever.

 

 

881: Greatness of Chandra Yoga

 

On the banks of River

Where waters of Nectar flow

Course the Five Pranas

Through central Sushumna,

They who thus remain,

Death do not have;

Good their Kalas arr;

Time-bound they are not.

 

 

882: Alternating Breath to Samadhi End

 

Opening the springs where Nectar wells up

They walk toward the Lotus Feet cool as water;

Sitting in undisturbed Samadhi;

Coursing through the Spinal channel

They alter the breathing right and left.

 

 

883: Benefits of Yoga

 

If breaths of Moon (Ida) and Sun (Pingala)

Course their way through Spinal channel unhindered,

Thine body imperishable shall be;

And abiding joys well up here below,

This the Way of Yoga True.
